rerecords: idk, probably around 6-7k across multiple files
got 5th place out of 9 entrants, moving onto task 7. didnt feel like this was too optimized. btw, the blj in the freerun works by getting a wallpush on the pillar. thanks to feij for showing me that.")

got 8th place with this. could easily save 5 frames by managing to skip the pause buffer on the blj, but fuck this blj lol. flying is pretty optimized for my standards. not too satisfied with this tbh.")

got 4th place (new best placing in this comp so far!). i couldve gotten 3rd though, which i will explain in the story below...
funny story: i had decided that, since i remembered, i would actually edit my savestate to have my star and life counts this time. this time, for no particular reason, i decided to make my star count 4004. then i started tasing the task. after closing the star textbox, i had another one of those youve collected x stars... text boxes. odd, i thought to myself, i wouldve thought xander wouldve made sure the star count was such that that wouldnt appear. oh well... i then proceeded to tas the whole task, optimizing as i went. i finished my first lotad a bit after the 45 minute mark, but i figured id just keep optimizing and playing it back to think of any potential improvements. after a bit, i decided it wouldnt hurt to submit my first run. i drag and drop the files into the compbot dm and continue working. i see the reply in the corner of my screen. Your submission is currently disqualified. Reason: invalid starting RNG. the anxiety begins shooting through my body. i was using my recent input lua that featured an rng-setting function. more than once while tasing i had thought to myself, man, i sure hope i didnt somehow accidentally edit the rng at the start of my run. i promptly redownloaded the original savestate and replaced my own. immediately, a desync. hmm?... then, it hits me. the extra textbox at the start is gone. i immediately rush into copying my old run yaw-for-yaw (luckily, i had made a copy of my files at one point). not even 5 minutes later, however, compbot has something else to say. You have 15 minutes remaining to submit! my only thought: this is real speedtasing now. i continue my run, but then realize the correct rng has... changed things. now i have a route that was based on different rng. but i cant turn back. i hurriedly make the new rng work with my old route, and finish the run just as the 5 minutes remaining message rolls by. i test a couple more things, and finally submit with one minute remaining. 🙂

Task 7:
In Tall Tall Mountain, start by closing the textbox, kill at least one Monty Mole on each level (one from the lower level, and one from the upper level), collect the final two red coins, and finish by collecting the red coin star.
• You may collect the coins and kill the moles in any order
• You are NOT allowed to edit the initial RNG value")

idk if hitting the wall first out of the stj is faster than hitting the ground first (like xiah does in his run), but it probably doesnt matter too much either way. this is pretty much the max speed you can get out of the blj, cause if you get much more than this, you clip through the wall and into a death plane. idk any other improvements, i just copied the strat xiah did.

WackyComp Task 8:
Collect all of the custom placed red coins and finish bycollecting the red coin star. After each red coin collected, mario must perform a specified action before the next coin:
No restrictions before the 1st coin
Backflip before the 2nd coin
Slidekick before the 3rd coin
Single jump (or jump-dive) before the 4th coin
Triple jump before the 5th coin
Timing starts on the first frame mario is able to move and ends on the first frame of the star dance animation.")
